Oldest Prosthetic Found
Discovered in a looted tomb on the west bank at Luxor, a wooden toe, still attached to its owner, is surprisingly sophisticated—and very likely to be the oldest working artificial body part in human history.

Heliopolis
The statue of Psamtek I emerging from the mud of ancient Heliopolis made headlines earlier this year. Dr. Dietrich Raue takes us through the amazing discoveries the Egyptian-German team have made there recently.

Napoleon
Every achievement in Egyptology over the past 200 years owes a debt of gratitude to Napoleon Bonaparte and his military-led “study tour” of Egypt. So why isn’t Napoleon given the credit as the “Father of Egyptology”?

The Royal Tombs of Ancient Egypt - Part Two
A history of Egypt’s royal burial places —from the very dawn of history down to Egypt’s absorption into the Roman Empire, 3,000 years later. Here we feature the 3rd and 4th Dynasties - the age of the giant pyramids.

Magic
In ancient Egypt, magic was very, very real, and it was how you made things happen in everyday life: dreams, hopes, protection from evil—even revenge.

The Curious Case of Obaysch the Egyptian Hippopotamus
As powerful as it was, and as ill-tempered as it could be, the hippopotamus was both feared and revered by the ancient Egyptians. In this issue, we look at the hippo in myth and magic, and examine its use in Egyptian medicine.

The Tomb. 1000 Years of Robbery and Reuse
Tutankhamun had been dead for just 40 years when a Theban tomb was used for the first time, in around 1290 B.C. It was then robbed and reused for more than 1,000 years before being finally sealed in 9 b.c. by a family who lived during the reign of Cleopatra. Unopened for almost 2,000 years, the tomb was discovered in 1857. Its fabulous contents have been brought together in a fabulous exhibition at the National Museum of Scotland.

Funerary Garden Found
Archaeologists have long known that the ancient Egyptians planted funeral gardens to honour their dead. Evidence, however, has been confined to depictions on tomb walls. Now a 4,000-year-old grid of plant beds has been discovered in Luxor.

World Museum
You can’t keep a good museum down. World Museum in Liverpool opens its new ancient Egypt gallery, featuring artefacts on show for the first time since 1941, when they became wartime casualties.

Susan Osgood
The two worlds of Oriental Institute artist, Susan Osgood: Art and Archaeology. Her seasons spent in Egypt, documenting ancient reliefs, become the inspiration for Susan’s own artwork.

The Royal Tombs of Ancient Egypt - Part One
Aidan Dodson’s new book is a history of Egypt’s royal burial places —from the very dawn of history down to Egypt’s absorption into the Roman Empire, 3,000 years later. Part one features Egypt’s pharaonic beginnings: the Early Dynastic Period.

Aswan Discoveries
New members of a powerful Middle Kingdom family stationed at the southern frontier of Elephantine Island are being discovered
